Note on the 23rd fret on a 22 fret guitar?

I've stumbled across a song in which some notes are supposed to be played on the 23rd fret on the lower E string. My guitar only has 22 frets so I get kinda stuck at that point. Is there any way to hit these notes on a 22 fret guitar or am I just doomed for not having a 24 fret one for this song?

I'm not too sure Ragser I had a look round and you could bend the 22 fret to get a higher pitch which string is it?

Depending on the pup, you can use it as an extension of your fretboard. I have seen it done but, you really have to be able to play well to pull it off.
